Chapter 1337: I’m Not, I’m Not!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

November 29th, Thursday…

Cai Jiadong went to the water bar to indirectly get a cup of coffee. Then, he sat down at his desk and checked the changes in the sales volume of the Real Estate Agent Simulator.

He took a look before knocking off yesterday. The sales volume had increased slightly on the day itself, but there were not many changes.

It was still a long way from the number they were looking forward to.

Therefore, Cai Jiadong did not continue paying attention to this matter after arriving home. Instead, he rested early.

In fact, Cai Jiadong knew very well that even Slow Movement Studio had not arranged for follow-up publicity work, nor had they applied for additional publicity funds. Why would things suddenly change?

He had been looking forward to what Meng Chang could do, but it was impossible to cook a house without rice. The initial publicity was not very smooth. It was not an easy task to reverse the situation now that the game had already been released.

Cai Jiadong did not have much expectations at first. However, after opening the platform to take a look, he realized that the sales of the real estate agent simulator seemed to have improved significantly!

He would be able to see this change more clearly if the sales figures were precise to every hour.

Cai Jiadong realized that the trend of this increase in sales had started from last night until this morning. The increase was obvious compared to yesterday’s data!

What’s more, the sales figures were obviously still increasing. There was no sign that they would fall!

It was still difficult to say that the game would make a huge profit in this current situation, but compared to the previous state, there was a fundamental improvement.

“What’s going on? Are the players finally enlightened? Have they realized how fun this game is?”

“No, there must have been an opportunity. It must have attracted the widespread attention and discussion of players. That’s why the sales volume increased!”

Cai Jiadong quickly clicked on the various forums to check the discussion about the Real Estate Agent Simulator. He quickly located the source of all of this: Young Master Tian’s new video!

After watching the video from beginning to end and seeing the audience’s bullet screen comments and comments, Cai Jiadong was completely clear.

Young Master Tian’s video had connected all the popularity together and successfully directed it to the Real Estate Agent Simulator and Sloth Apartments!

Based on the results alone, this could be said to be “luring him into a trap”.

First, Slow Movement Studio had done a series of publicity including the promotional video in order to promote the Real Estate Agent Simulator. Then, Home Corporation saw the change in popularity and happened to be warming up their new butler business. Thus, they joined in and invested a lot of publicity resources.

The topic of intermediaries was highly followed online.

However, most of the Home Corporation would not have expected that the popularity that they had worked so hard to create had not been used by the ‘meticulous butler’ business. Instead, Young Master Tian’s video had directly dismantled the foundation of this business. All of its popularity had returned to the Real Estate Agent Simulator!

All of this seemed too coincidental.

Cai Jiadong could not help but have an idea. “This Young Master Tian can’t be Meng Chang’s alternate account, right?”

This game was so exquisite. Any problem would lead to the failure of the plan.

Everything else was fine. The key was how to ensure that Young Master Tian’s video would be released at the most appropriate time?

The timing was so perfect. Meng Chang must have intended for this to happen.

In other words, it was very likely that this Young Master Tian had posted this video under Meng Chang’s instructions. In fact, Young Master Tian was Meng Chang’s alternate account.

This was completely in line with Meng Chang’s character after learning about marketing from Boss Pei.

At that thought, Cai Jiadong decided to give Meng Chang a call to express his gratitude.

From the looks of the results, the publicity effect this time was perfect. Even though they spent a lot of money on publicity, every cent was spent wisely.

It was only right to thank him for his success.

The phone call was connected in no time.

Cai Jiadong said happily, “Brother Meng! I watched your video. It was done very well! I didn’t expect you to have such a backup plan when you were filming the promotional video. I’m impressed, I’m impressed!”

However, Meng Chang was silent for a moment on the other end of the line and said, “What video? Why don’t I understand what you’re saying?”

Cai Jiadong was stunned.

What did that mean?

Could Meng Chang be saying that he did not know Young Master Tian at all?

Impossible.

Suddenly, inspiration struck Cai Jiadong. He understood.

Even if Meng Chang was Young Master Tian, he could not publicize this matter!

That was because some things would change if he changed his identity.

Young Master Tian had posted the video analysis from the perspective of an objective, neutral, and outsider. That was why the audience was willing to listen. However, if everyone knew that Young Master Tian was Meng Chang, the position and motive of this video would change. Even if every word was from the bottom of his heart, the audience might not listen.

Therefore, Meng Chang would definitely not admit his identity as Young Master Tian. He would even try his best to hide it.

That was because exposing his identity at this time would be equivalent to committing suicide. It would be equivalent to wasting all his previous efforts.

At that thought, Cai Jiadong quickly corrected himself. “Oh, right, right, right. I mean, Young Master Tian’s video is too coincidental! I’m really grateful that he produced such a video!”

Meng Chang coughed lightly. “If you want to thank him, thank him. You can even give him a video like, invest, or charge money. There’s no need to specially inform me. I don’t know him. What’s more, I only briefly completed the job assigned by Boss Pei.”

“Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first. I have to report to Boss Pei later.”

Cai Jiadong nodded. “Alright! I’ll charge the video now. See you.”

Cai Jiadong was even more certain that Young Master Tian was Meng Chang after hanging up.

However, he did not intend to mention it to anyone. He would even help Meng Chang hide this matter.

After all, this was beneficial to Slow Movement Studio’s future business.

What if Young Master Tian’s identity was exposed and Meng Chang could not play it well? Who could he ask to help promote the next game to achieve such a good effect? Wouldn’t that be equivalent to cutting off his own arm?

Cai Jiadong would not do that kind of stupid thing.

Cai Jiadong felt filled with motivation as he watched the discussion and sales of the game rise rapidly.

Work began!

The real estate agent simulator might have achieved initial success but it was still a long way from becoming popular and making a killing.

Cai Jiadong began to seriously plan the subsequent version development plan.

In fact, Cai Jiadong had already made a preliminary version development plan after the game was developed. It mainly included some small functional optimization, richer dialogue, and so on.

After all, it was the first version of the modifications. It was mainly focused on the optimization of the existing content of the game. There were no new functions planned.

At that moment, Lin Wan sent a message. “The plan for the new version has been shelved for now. There will be a meeting tomorrow. There are more important things to discuss. It might cause the plan for the new version to be completely redone. Don’t make it useless.”

Cai Jiadong was stunned.

The meeting tomorrow might cause all the plans for the new version to be redone?

Cai Jiadong’s first reaction was a huge change in the game. However, the key was that the game had not failed. After a round of publicity, the sales volume had obviously increased. The situation was great!

In other words, the so-called overthrowing and redoing was not overturning the game’s content, but the original plan for the new version?

He had not planned for new functions before. Now, he had decided to develop more new functions at the last minute?

What new function?

Cai Jiadong had some guesses, but he did not ask further. He only replied, “Understood!”

November 30th, Friday afternoon…

Meng Chang walked confidently to Boss Pei’s office.

He had paid attention to the United States yesterday and realized that Home Corporation’s shares had fallen.

Obviously, it was because of public opinion!

Young Master Tian’s video was a fuse. Slow Movement Studio and Home Corporation’s overwhelming marketing and publicity for intermediaries previously were fuel. In the end, it ignited all the tenants in the country’s anger towards the deformed rental market that had accumulated for a long time.

Home Corporation had thought that the ‘Compassionate butler business’ would go smoothly and receive good reviews. However, they had not expected to be scolded badly and even met with general resistance!

The tenants were not buying this Compassionate butler business at all. They were not willing to pay a single cent more!

That was because everyone had a consensus after Young Master Tian’s analysis: On the surface, the so-called considerate butler business was to provide better service to tenants. In fact, it was nothing more than a pretext to collect more money. What’s more, the conflict would ultimately be transferred to tenants and intermediaries.

All in all, you can dream of deceiving me no matter how flowery your words are!

Not only were the players angry, but many competitors of Home Corporation also took the opportunity to buy fake reviewers and hit them while they were down.

Their butts might not be clean, and they might not even be as good as Home Corporation, but that did not stop them from taking the opportunity to promote themselves.

At that moment, Home Corporation became the target of public criticism!

What was worse was that Home Corporation could not explain anything. They had only released a minor statement.

That was because the compassionate butler business this time was really as Young Master Tian had said. It was purely a business. It was not an upgrade in service.

Even if there was a so-called service upgrade, it was just a superficial matter.

It was impossible for Home Corporation to change all of this fundamentally because they were counting on this to make money. If they really changed the service method of intermediaries, opened up the internal reorganization, and launched a real “Safe House” or “compassionate butler” business, it would not be something that could be done in a day. What’s more, it would definitely mean that the profits would be greatly reduced, and the stock price would fall even more.

However, if he did not make any substantial changes, it would be useless no matter how he explained.

The predicament of Home Corporation gave Meng Chang an unprecedented feeling.

He had never imagined that a listed company that looked so huge would be so weak and fragile.
